Have you ever won a SB contest?

26 years ago

I was just wondering if any members of this group have ever won a contest for scrapbook making or just a random drawing online? I see all these sites for contests but I have never meet or talked to anyone who has won anything. So if you did tell us about it. Penny

We just got a new scrapbook store in my town and I am going to suggest a scrapbook contest. (!)

Funny you should ask because I *just* received an envelope full of metallic paper and letter stickers from Paper Adventures...and no explanation! LOL! I *think* it was from when I entered a random drawing contest on their site a while back. I'm not fussy though, I'll *gladly* take free SB stuff! ;o)

Thanks all. . Deanna, I had no logic in plant placement, LOL. I know very little about design but I know what I like so tried to create what I have invisioned for my front yard. I like drifts of plants, purples, pinks and white, semi formal with a bit of a wild side. I placed the conifers first to give a transition between the woodlands and the flower garden which I am doing in my own landscape. Aftermidnight; The light pink are drift roses, the white and dark pink are phlox and the purple are listed as purple flowers.

What's the oddest thing you've ever won?

Well, I also won a "completely restored" John Deere lawn tractor from the local Old Engine club a couple of years ago. It ran for about 15 minutes then blew up. LOL And now, the real prize. Elery and I went to a Taste of Home Cooking Show, he got tickets as a gift from his sister. One of the sponsors was a woman's shelter and a local builder donated a $1,500 island, beautiful handmade cabinetry with some kind of composite counter top that looks like granite. Raffle tickets were sold, proceeds went to the women's shelter. Elery bought 3 tickets, gave them to me. Yup, the island will be delivered to Elery's next week, we tried to sell it back to the builder because there's no place in either of our houses to install it. I think we've decided to keep it and put it into the new house when we build in a couple of years. It's a very, very nice prize but who the heck wins a kitchen island? Annie

If you could only have one SB tool what would it be?

I don't think it is fair to limit us to one tool - after all don't our men get to have ALL the tools???? : ) But I would have to say the Fiskars paper trimmer. I am assuming that scissors are required and therefore excluded from the list of options!! And just fyi, I don't have the CM circle cutter but I do have another and I like it when I want a circle shape. Rebecca

OH! I get it! I just figured out (by going to the Paper Adventures site) that I got the metallic supplies because I was one of the first 300 people to put in a request for them. Apparently I'm supposed to use the products in a layout and submit the layout in a contest. Duh. :o)

I've won something. A couple weeks ago I was at a scrapbooking convention, and I won 3 door prizes!!!! I was so thrilled. I'll list what I can remember: Sticker letters (5 sheets), a pack of paper, glue, corners, scissors, a punch art book and dozens of punchies, some other stuff I don't remember. It was so fun, and I was so happy, because normally I don't win anything!

I have won twice from Scraplink.com for submitting broken links and new web sties. First time I got a 2 year sub. to Ivy Cottage Magazine and then I won a thing to copy with. Can not remmeber the name if it but is was around a 30 -40.00 item. So I was happy. I use it for scrapbooking to copy alphabets from my book.
